It's party time -- party season.
Today we drove to Decatur for my cousin's son's high school graduation party. J graduated last Sunday and his party was this Sunday. Next week he will be sworn in to service in the Marines and immediately after he will report for basic training in San Diego.
We had a lot to celebrate -- endings and beginnings. School ended but learning will continue as J ultimately will go to Paris Island for logistics training with the Marines. Life in Decatur is drawing to a close but a new life in California, South Carolina, and who knows where else in the world is just beginning. It's exciting and scary. J's life is filled with hope and possibilities and a degree of uncertainty. but no matter where he goes or what adventures he encounters, he will always have a home in the hearts of his parents, brother, extended family and friends.
Good luck J! We love you and we'll be praying for you!
